High Five for Friday

Hey y'all! It's Friday again and I'm so happy about that! Have had a lot going on this week, so I'm excited to have a little time to relax. And because it's Friday, I'm going to share you five of my week's highlights to you. Linking up with Lauren as usual.

1. Choir practice

Our local church has these theme nights around 6-8 times a year and there's a band and choir to lead worship there. I've been in the choir since last fall now, since we moved into this area. I had a really really tiring day on Tuesday at work. But the choir practice made it all better, it was like a breath of fresh air! It was so great singing songs to thank our Lord and be with those wonderful people, sharing that fellowship time. It was a real treat!

2. Apples

I got some fresh Finnish apples from a friend of mine on Saturday. I made some pie of them already and have been enjoying munching them in general as well. Some imported apples make my mouth tickle, but these fresh domestic ones aren't like that and I've been happy as a bee, being able to enjoy them.

3. Bible study

I know, I talked about this a couple of weeks back as well, but we had another meeting on Sunday and we had such a good time discussing about God's word and what it means to us and what it means in this time and all that. It was a very nice evening.

4. Sports day at school

Yesterday we had a sports day in my school. We walked to the nearby tracks and had all sorts of competitions, like tug of war, there. The weather was just lovely and we had a great time. As a subject teacher it's wonderful to be able to see the children in a different environment, doing different things, than just practicing the subject that I teach. I can get to know them a lot better because of days like that.

5. Entertaining friends

This hasn't happened yet, but I'm excited to welcome some friends into our home tonight, who haven't yet been in this apartment. I'm sure we will have fun together over dinner and dessert :) It's a great way to start the weekend too!
